Contents of the Ajera Form

Use the Ajera form of Integrations to configure Vantagepoint to connect to your Ajera instance and synchronize data.

Depending on your version of Ajera, the synchronization is one-way or two-way. In Ajera versions earlier than 8.09, the synchronization process is one-way. Contact, firm, and project information is imported from the corresponding Vantagepoint hubs into Ajera.

In Ajera version 8.09 and later, the synchronization is bidirectional. When the synchronization process runs, any new or changed information in Ajera is updated in Vantagepoint and vice versa.

Before you begin, you must turn on integration to Vantagepoint in Ajera. Open Ajera and select the CRM tab in Company > Preferences > Integration to set up synchronization to occur automatically at regularly scheduled times. You can also run the synchronization process manually at any time using the Synchronize with CRM menu option.
